Butternut Creek Golf Course
Lace up your spikes, polish up those clubs, grab that bag and mount up a golf cart. You have some serious golfing available at the Butternut Creek Golf Course.
While looking down the fairway at the first tee, most folks often don’t know what to do first, grab a club or pullout the camera. This course has an outstanding backdrop view of the Ivy Log Mountain Range. What’s great about this 18-hole golf course is that it’s open to the public. Even better than that, the Union County Community Center is located along the upper end of the course, next to the first tee, providing excellent club house facilities within.
The Butternut Creek Golf Course, owned and operated by the Union County Recreation Department, offers a challenging 18-hole golf course, composed of Penncross Bent Grass greens, and Tifton 419 Bermuda fairways and tees.
The course plays to a modest 6,500 plus yards, with 4 to 6 tee boxes on every hole offering a challenging option for every player. Elevation changes are found throughout the course and there are 13-holes where water comes into play.
The Union County Community Center has a clubhouse atmosphere with beautifully styled locker rooms, including a game table in the men’s locker room.
Within the Union County Community Center is Butternut Creek Tourism/Pro Shop, and located upstairs within in the center is The View Grill, offering a spectacular view of the course and mountains beyond. Also located in the Center is a banquet hall and conference rooms making it a great wedding, reunion, and corporate event facility.
